These are fudgy brownies perfect for 2! It is a small batch recipe that is baked in an 9x5 loaf pan. The brownies come together in one bowl and have that sweet crinkle top we all love.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 egg room temperature
- 1 tbsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8×4 or 9×5 pan. For easy removal of the brownies, place parchment paper on the bottom and 2 sides of the pan. Grease on the sides and then set aside.
- Melt the butter and while it's still hot, add in the chocolate chips and whisk it in. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes while you prep the rest of your ingredients.1/4 cup unsalted butter, 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Whisk in cocoa powder and sugar until well combined. It may be grainy, but that is okay!1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- Whisk in egg and vanilla for 1-2 minutes. Make sure to whisk for a good amount of time as this introduces air into the batter and allows for that shiny crackle top we all love on brownies.1 egg, 1 tbsp vanilla
- Using a spatula, gently fold in flour and salt until a soft brownie batter forms. Then mix in chocolate chips.1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly. Top with extra chocolate chips if desired.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes depending on your oven. Start checking after 20 minutes. The brownies will have set edges and the middle will look a little underbaked. When you insert a toothpick it'll come out with moist crumbs.
- Sprinkle flakey sea salt (optional, but recommended) and enjoy!
